Joining Up: Heyer Month and Start 2014 Write

Everyone (?) agrees that the best part of book blogging is community. Therefore, there are two fun group events that I want to share with you in case you hadn't seen them. I'll be participating in both!

Anastasia is hosting Georgette Heyer Month in February. There will be a read-along and guest posts and more so go sign up if you're interested! I'll probably be joining the read-along and reading a couple of my TBR Heyers as well.

And there's a fun project starting over at The Estella Society called Start 2014 Write hosted by Andi, Heather and Kailana. You can choose to write and receive 1, 3 or 5 letters or cards. Mailing will happen in February and the event is open internationally. I've signed up for 5 because this project is awesome! I might have even looked for some new stationery to use just for this. Sign-up before January 20 to participate.

Oh I give in! I don't sign up for challenges anymore (just setting myself up for failure), but I had to sign up for the mail-writing thing. I love writing letters. I love getting letters. Trust book bloggers to come up with something so lovely.

I'm so glad you've joined! I have totally sucked at my follow-through lately too but I just couldn't resist this either. I am not very confident about my own letter writing skills but I SO want to get some letters. This is going to be fun!

Oh, I signed up for the letter writing challenge, too. I hope that is a challenge I can keep! It isn't that hard to write a card, is it? It's more difficult to get to a post office and send it during working hours...

I keep meaning to write letters so I'm also hoping that this gets me started because, well, I have to do it this time! I'm sure there will be a lag between when I write them and when I actually get them out though.

Fantastic! (And I love that you are a Heyer fan.) I'm not so great at letters either but it's actually something I want to improve on so I thought this would help. We'll see if it ends up being a one time activity for me or if I can start a new habit.
